He’s right, in his own crazy way.
“Disturbed white males” are dangerous. Fortunately, there aren’t many of them per capita. The non-disturbed white males outnumber them by a considerable margin.
But, when the disturbed ones go off, they go off big because they have the intelligence to do it well. They don’t just lash out like an angry animal, as disturbed “other” males do. They plan an attack.
And why are they disturbed anyway?
Most of them are raised by women. Their urges to explore, test limits, fight, and make friends are curtailed...by drugs, if necessary. They can’t do stupid things that cause them to learn valuable lessons that come with stitches, burns, and broken bones. They go to school and their natural impulses are further curtailed.
They are raised to be girls, while girls are permitted to explore every facet of their natural tendencies.
Then, they are taught that they are each guilty for an injustice that occurred more than 150 years ago—an injustice that was corrected by white males fighting a war to fix it! But, they have to carry a stigma for it anyway.
They learn that a white boy from a trailer park is a “child of privilege” while the black son of a doctor is an “oppressed minority”. If the white boy can get into college, he faces attacks daily by his professors and classmates for “his part” in numerous injustices that occurred before his parents were even born.
It’s a wonder that more of them are “disturbed”! I bet that if any other group in modern America was treated so poorly for things they had no part in or control over, a lot more of them would be “disturbed”.
I'm guessing they are being raised by disturbed women. Women who probably themselves had mental illness. While people complain about the absent father, I am guessing that some of these women drove their husbands/boyfriends away because of extreme dysfunctionality (or attracted abusive men because of their emotional neediness). They end up forming unhealthy bonds with the sons.
Apparently this guy Rodgers was very close to his mother, who probably indulged him. (There might also be a biogenetic component, as mentally ill parents pass on their genes.)
People complain, "Where is the father?" I often wondered, "What about the mother?" A lot of guys are growing up with rage & hate thanks to women who shouldn't really be having children in the first place.
(For the record, I'm a woman, and one who grew up with a disturbed mother. My older brother was majorly messed up; hated women, particularly strong ones.)
